This book applies queer theory to the existing Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda to identify persistent gaps in the WPS framework's treatment of LGBTQ people in conflict, and to outline steps for LGBTQ leaders and WPS actors to better engage with these communities. Since the adoption in 2000 of resolution 1325 by the United Nations Security Council, the WPS architecture has grown and developed, and examples of implementation have begun to reveal the way in which "gender" has generally been used to mean women, and even more narrowly heterosexual women. Jamie J. Hagen evaluates how WPS practitioners understand the needs of LGBTQ people in war and peacebuilding, and what needs to change in order to take a more inclusive approach to gender.
